I've been having some trouble with my breathing over the past few days. I keep needing to drink water or do some breathing exercises to feel normal again. Can you help me understand why this might be happening and suggest any remedies that might help?

I've been trying to shake off a chest congestion issue that popped up about ten days after I recovered from COVID. My symptoms were pretty mild initially, and I got through it while isolating at home. But now, I'm dealing with this annoying chest noise when I breathe, and it's making me cough. What's weird is that this didn't happen at all when I was still positive for COVID. I was taking MucidayN daily for about 23 days, but it doesn't seem to be doing much. Is there another medication you think might work better, or should I just keep going with MucidayN? Any advice would be appreciated!

Question

I'm really worried about my recent x-ray report. It says there's a mild increase in peri hilar bronchovascular markings in both lung fields. Is this something I should be concerned about? I'm not sure how serious this might be. Can you help me understand what's going on?
